Endoscopic Treatment of Gastric Adenoma with Argon Plasma Coagulation
The term gastric adenoma means a benign lesion of the glandular epithelium having variable degrees of cellular atypia and showing papillary or tubular structures. Because long-term follow-up studies of gastric adenomas reveal malignant transformations, it is well known they are premalignant. Since these lesions lie histologically and clinically on the borderline of between whether they are beni...

contact technique of electrocoagulation in which energy is transmitted via ion− ized argon gas flow. The tip of the cathe− ter should be kept between 1 mm and 3 mm away from the mucosa. APC has be− come increasingly popular for treating gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE). Its main advantage is that coagulation is more superficial, thus reducing the risk of complications [1]. We present two ...
متن کاملEndoscopic Dissolution of Gastric Lipoma with Argon Plasma Coagulation
A 47-year-old patient presented from outside the hospital for evaluation of iron deficiency anemia (IDA). The endoscopic workup suggested a gastric antral subepithelial lesion with an overlying arteriovenous malformation (AVM). Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) revealed the lesion to be a lipoma. Given the patient's anemia and blood transfusion requirements, the AVM was treated with argon plasma coag...
متن کاملArgon plasma coagulation for successful treatment of early gastric cancer with intramucosal invasion.
BACKGROUND In recent years, there has been an increasing number of cases of early gastric cancer (T1, NX) with intramucosal invasion, which are untreatable by surgical or endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) because of their high risk. Currently, no adequate treatment is available for such patients. AIM The main objective of this study was to evaluate whether argon plasma coagulation (APC) is a...
